I have these 2 pickups that I tore apart at some point for whatever reason (damned if I can remember). 1 is a Dimarzio Humbucker from Hell and the other is an SD 59n. Would anyone with pickup tech experience be willing to fix them for me? I could ship them to you.

Looks like you just need to mount them back on the base plates. What are you having a problem with?
 
I seem to recall that I tried swapping baseplates at one point, so I could install the 59 in my Wolfgang.
 
Hmmm. I’ve done plenty of magnet swaps and such with pickups but never had a loss of output. Hopefully somebody with more expertise will chime in
 
Correct me if I am wrong,but if there is no output wouldn't that mean a winding has broken?

Are you reading resistance on each bobbin,or are they reading open?

I'm reading 0 between the hot and the ground wires.
 
the coils don't seems attached to the wires any more are they? hard to see in pics. as marty said..
 
I think if the winding is broken they have to be rewound, or junked unfortunately.
